Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I used OpenHab a few years ago and remember it being way more fiddly with very varying integration quality. it didn't help that it was based on OSGi packages (the complex mess that Eclipse IDE is also based on), which I don't much care for.
i only recently starte with HA and found it much easier to use and tweak.
But I also saw some stubbornness by the devs. In my case related to oauth/third party authentication, which they claimed was "enterprise interests trying to corrupt a community project" (I'm paraphrasing) instead of good security practice of centralising the authentication in a homelab.
